Train services on the R11 line between Figueres and Portbou in Alt Empordà were restored on 18 May 2026. The disruption was caused by an incident involving the signalling systems, according to Diari Catalunya.
Commuters travelling through the region experienced delays and cancellations due to the technical fault. The R11 line is a key route, connecting several towns in the northern part of Catalonia to the wider rail network.
Signalling Issue Resolved
Officials worked to resolve the signalling system problem, which had halted traffic on the line. The prompt resolution allowed trains to resume their regular schedule, easing travel for passengers.
Further details on the specific nature of the signalling incident have not been released. However, the quick response ensured minimal long-term impact on the region's rail transport.
